It is the same answer as in the question "Can you rob a bank?"
Yes, if you have the opportunity it is possible to rob a bank.
No, it is not legal to rob a bank.


It is possible to purchase OEM versions, but the license says that it
can only be purchased alongside equipment sold through an authorized
equipment manufacturer.

Otherwise it is just a step above piracy.
